Print Queue Sharing
To access a print queue from other workstations or servers on the
network, the queue must be a shared resource. The following proce-
dure is only one of the ways a queue can be shared. For other meth-
ods, see your OS/2 LAN Manager/LAN Server documentation.
» Note: You need administrator privileges to perform this operation.
1 If necessary, with OS/2 running, open an OS/2 window.
2 Type
net share queue_name /print
↵
where queue_name is the queue or printer object you created
above.
» Note: While queue and printer names may differ in OS/2 version
1.x, they are the same in version 2.x.
TCP/IP NetWork Configuration
1 Log on the UNIX system as root.
2 Edit the system host table by adding the following line to the
/etc/hosts file:
internetaddress hostname
where internetaddress is the Internet address of the printer
(Administration/Communications/ xxxxxxxx NIC/CrownNet/
TCPIP/Internet Address menu (where xxxxxxxx is either Resident
or Optional)) and hostname is the name of the printer.
3 If necessary, set the hardware address.

Caution: We strongly recommend that you do not change the
hardware address.
n
If you’re working on a system other than a UNIX system, set
the hardware address through the printer control panel.
